Hi All
Want to as about some advice for a phone that I bought on ebay 9days ago.
I won a new Nokia N95 8GB on ebay. Got a good price on it too. Straight after the auction the seller was in touch via email.
I asked him if I could collect, and he said yes, no problems. He sent me his full address, and name, and postcode etc. In the end I decided it was too far for me to go - bishops stortford - so I asked him to post it.
He was charging 5% extra for paypal, so I agreed to a bank transfer. We both have HSBC accounts, so I assumed the transfer would be fairly quick. I did it last thursday, and it looks as if it has gone through okay.
Over the last few days I have been trying to get in touch, but no reply to any of my emails whatsoever. I have tried various email accounts incase it was getting blocked etc. There have been no parcels delivered to me either.
I have contacted HSBC who said the money has definitley gone through. This guy has 107 positive feedbacks , and has been an ebayer for 2 years. Tried googling his name etc, and nothing much turns up.
I have been emailing every day, some days twice a day, but no reply whatsoever. Tmrw will be 10 days, so I can start an ebay dispute - but I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas ?
It seems really odd for someone to give all their details, and also be prepared to let me collect, and then not reply to any emails.
Anyone have any good suggestions ?
